lyrics

The window's rattling
A typhoon hit Taipei
I'm anxious and writing
I've been awake for so many days
I've talked with black suits
Fast talking cut-up tongues
They want my potential
Signed away with bleeding arms

I can't stop listening
I wanna make my family proud
But I can't sell to industry
'Cause this is something I have to do for myself (do for myself)

I'm so scared that I won't reach my potential
I write so many songs I don't think are good enough
It might just be too late to reach my potential
But I won't know, not for sure if I'm in Taipei
(if I'm in Taipei)

I love this city
My home on the island in the sun
You are a part of me
But it's time for me to move on
Goodbye to my girl
妳知道的，妳是我的最愛
I'll go to New York, New York
'Cause it's time to make a change in my life (time to make a change in my life)

I'm so scared that I won't reach my potential
I write so many songs I don't think are good enough
It might just be too late to reach my potential
But I won't know, not for sure if I'm in Taipei

Taipei, oh Taipei
Taipei, oh Taipei
Taipei

All I want is just to reach my potential
I write so many songs I don't think are good enough
It might be too late to reach my potential
But I won't know, not for sure, if I'm in Taipei

我把心留在台北
I left my heart in Taipei
我把心留在台北
I left my heart in Taipei
